Reverse description The central bimetallic field presents a dramatic split composition commemorating the 50th anniversary of the first artificial Earth satellite: the dark tantalum centre depicts a partial globe with continental relief, while the polished silver field to the right shows the iconic Sputnik-1 satellite with its characteristic spherical body and four trailing antennae, set against a dotted cosmic background evoking radio signals. The anniversary dates '1957-2007' are inscribed in the lower centre of the field. The circumferential legend on the silver ring reads '• ТҰҢҒЫШ ЖАСАНДЫ ЖЕР СЕРІГІ •' in Kazakh Cyrillic at the top and '• THE FIRST SPACE SATELLITE OF THE EARTH •' in Latin script at the bottom.
